His comment to Bilas about how he should have skipped his Duke years to become a lottery pick and the subsequent awkward silence had me rolling

I can't stand Bill Simmons, but I don't get why he should get any flack over this. He's a Celtics fan and they drafted a player he wanted/likes.

why is this frowned upon?

can't believe they put simmons on air. tv is not his medium

I don't know but I love Simmons. He's like your typical message board homer/armchair GM that just so happened to hit it big.

Everyone knows he's a Celtics fan.

Simmons is fine on TV.
People hate 95% of TV personalities, though.

i dont think he is, it was a well executed joke

Sometimes he says some really off the wall stuff, but for the most part, I don't mind him.
Posted on 6/27/14 at 10:48 am to NorthGAVol
He is basically the only reason I watched without mute on.

No wonder he was pissed that the Heat got Napier.

I'm not that big into basketball but I like Simmons as much as most of the ones.
Posted on 6/27/14 at 10:55 am to NorthGAVol
It's not like he hides his fandom at all.

Some old antiquated idea that sports media personalities on TV should be impartial. Frick that.
Posted on 6/27/14 at 10:59 am to NorthGAVol
I think it was a planned joke.

He said a couple things to jay last night and there was no response. Jalen didnt even get involved. Douche Bill.

He is a huge Boston homer, which can get a little annoying, but overall I think he is funny. He is good friends with Jimmy Kimmel and Adam Carolla and they rag on him all the time on Adam Carolla's podcast.

I'm a big fan of Simmons, although his fandom can cause him to be annoying about certain topics. (He used to hate Peyton Manning so much, he was unreadable.) I like his style -- the pop culture references and the crazy deep analysis about stuff. He's made a niche for himself and God bless him. ESPN.com basically created Grantland for him.
